For example, when doing:
(dired '("custom-buffer" "~/.emacs.d" "/Volumes" "~/.bash_profile"))
I cannot sort, and when changing a name of a file it will not reappear in the buffer. An additional quirk is if I do dired-maybe-insert-subdir
on /Volumes
dired thinks I'm in the ~/.emacs.d
and will not open /Volumes
. I know in the docs it says the sorting behavior will not work as expected.
So I suppose I'm just asking if there is a package or something that just makes it so I can list a bunch of files and all the usual dired commands working as expected. Or is there a better way of dealing with an arbitrary group of files? The main feature I would like the most I suppose is sorting.
